The album, which sees the band return their classic deadly thrash metal sound, was again recorded with producer Tue Madsen at Antfarm Studio (Dark Tranquillity; Heaven Shall Burn, Sick Of It All, etc.) in Denmark and will be released on August 25th, 2014 in Europe and September 2nd, 2014 in North America via the band's longtime label partner Century Media Records.
And the time has now come to debut a first new track off "Exit Wounds". Check out the furious and relentless opening track "Cutting Teeth" via the website of UK's Metal Hammer magazine here:
<a href="http://metalhammer.teamrock.com/news/2014-07-09/premiere-the-haunted-cutting-teeth" target="_blank">metalhammer.teamrock.com</a>
THE HAUNTED's vocalist Marco Aro commented on "Cutting Teeth" as follows: <i>"Here's an evil little piece of work that was one of the last songs we recorded for 'Exit Wounds'. It represents quite a lot of what The Haunted is all about: Breaking new ground, pissing people off, exploring unfamiliar territories, all of this...just to feed the hungry machine that is The Haunted! Always curious, always hungry, always thirsting for more....in words...'Cutting Teeth'!"</i>
Also, THE HAUNTED are also happy to reveal that their new album features two special guests appearing on the song "Trend Killer": Jed Simon (Scar The Martyr / Strapping Young Lad) on lead guitars and Testament's Chuck Billy on vocals.
Chuck Billy checked in to comment on his appearance as follows: <i>"I have always been a THE HAUNTED fan and became friends with the band over the years. When they asked if I would like to sing on a song for the new album with Marco singing, I didn't have to think twice about doing it. When I received the track and listened for the first time, I said 'Fuck Yeah...this is gonna be brutal!'"</i>

Century Media RecordsCentury Media RecordsWed, 09 Jul 2014 08:52:24 GMTThe Haunted: : Announce new album title, release date and launch cover artwork!Swedish Metal institution The Haunted can finally reveal some details about their upcoming, much anticipated new album, which sees the band return to their classic deadly thrash metal sound.
The Haunted's new album, which was again recorded with the band's longtime producer Tue Madsen at Antfarm Studio (Dark Tranquillity, Heaven Shall Burn, Sick Of It All, etc.) in Denmark, is symbolically and programmatically entitled "Exit Wounds" and will be released on August 25th, 2014 in Europe and September 2nd, 2014 in North America via the band's longtime label partner Century Media Records.
The Haunted's vocalist Marco Aro commented on the album's impending release's title and artwork as follows:
<i>"Ok my friends, so here we are again...at the threshold of a new The Haunted release. It maybe doesn't sound very exiting to some...but...it is!!!</i>
<i>This time around we've found our way back to where we once started! You could say that we've gathered the old crew, both in music and the artwork. Our old friend Andreas "Diaz" Pettersson is back, an amazing artist with a rap sheet which includes the artwork on no less than four The Haunted albums. He always finds a way to put our thoughts into print where he sometimes even scares us a bit...and this release is no different.</i>
<i>We decided on "Exit Wounds" as being a good title for the album given the recent history of the band, but also a sort of a phoenix rising. FUCKING JÄVLA FÅGEL FENIX....WE ARE BACK!!!</i>
<i>We are so excited about this little thing we've created! Can't wait to get out there and start playing these songs and for me personally, I could not be more proud of what we have done, I really hope you're going to enjoy it!"</i>

THE HAUNTED have checked in with the following comment from the studio:
<i>"Here you go, folks; picture proof of the cursed, grueling, back-breaking, yet eventually immensely rewarding process of recording an album. How about Tue's use of an empty pool for that special reverb effect!? You can't buy that shit as a plug-in (hey...wait a minute...maybe you can?). Anyway, recording might be hard, strenuous work, but it's always relaxing to have producer wizard, and great friend, R-Tue-D-Tue on board. We love both him and his studio dog Maud.
The songs all sound great, and it seems that we're looking at the embryo to a pretty fast album. We're hoping you won't mind the velocity when you pop the CD into the player with your dirty little mitts.
And yup, we've released the bands that'll open for us on our Scandinavian dates. Be sure to get there on time to check them out!"</i>

THE HAUNTED have checked in with the following comment about their current activity:
"<i>After having found our feet as a band onstage at last week's 70,000 Tons Of Metal festival, it is now time to bring the mayhem home to Scandinavia. First show of the tour will hit Gothenburg (I mean, where else, right?) followed up by a string of shows in Sweden, Norway and Finland. The reception of the three new songs from our newly released EP "Eye of the Storm" at 70K was amazing, so expect them to be played, together with a truckload of other hard-hitters. We can't wait to get back out there playing shows again, and we'll make sure it has been worth your while sticking around for us through thick and thin. See you all somewhere along the road!</i>"
